Who Should I Start? Jayden Daniels or TreVeyon Henderson

Friday, October 17, 8:20 PM

Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels could be without all three of his top wide receivers for Week 7's matchup at Dallas, with Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) ruled out for the fourth straight game, Noah Brown (groin) placed on IR, and Deebo Samuel Sr. (heel) listed as questionable. Daniels faced a similar situation last week against the Bears, as Samuel was clearly limited by the injury and less effective than usual, yet Daniels still delivered an excellent fantasy performance. The star QB threw three touchdowns and totaled 52 rushing yards on 10 carries, both his highest since Week 1. Now Daniels and the Washington offense head on the road to face a Dallas defense that has allowed the third-most points and the highest yards per pass attempt in the league. There should be plenty of points scored on both sides in this matchup, and Daniels will rank as one of the top QBs in fantasy for Week 7.

New England Patriots running back TreVeyon Henderson has continued to share backfield reps with Rhamondre Stevenson through six weeks of the 2025 season. As a result, the rookie has mostly stayed off the fantasy radar. That could change in Week 7 as Henderson has a prime opportunity to break out against the Tennessee Titans. New England is heavily favored over Tennessee, so a positive game script could lead to plenty of touches for the running backs, particularly Henderson. The Titans are pretty bad against the run, too, allowing the most rushing touchdowns and third-most fantasy points to opposing running backs in 2025. Between game script and matchup, Week 7 could offer the perfect storm for Henderson to separate himself from Rhamondre Stevenson and break out with a huge game. He's an intriguing RB3/flex with RB2 upside this week.
